Individual Pizzas



We call them "Pizza Burgers", but they are basically individual pizzas made on french bread, sub buns, hoagie rolls or even sandwich buns or hot dog buns. No matter what you call them, they are a family favorite in our house any day.

This is an especially quick supper to make when you have leftover pizza ingredients in your fridge or freezer. It also makes a nice meal if you have picky eaters who like different toppings. You can set toppings out and let each person create their own pizza!

To make your pizzas you'll need:
Buns or rolls split horizontally
Pizza sauce
Shredded (sliced works very well, too) Mozzarella or Provolone Cheese
Any pizza toppings you prefer (pepperoni, sausage, onion, mushrooms, peppers, etc.)

First, turn on your broiler and cover your broiler pan with foil (makes for easier clean-up). Split your rolls and place cut side up on broiler pan. Lightly toast rolls under broiler for about 2 minutes watching closely so as not to burn them. Top toasted roll halves with sauce and toppings desired. Place under broiler again until cheese is melted and toppings are heated- about 3 minutes. Serve hot. Refrigerate any leftovers.

Hi Heather! It's me, Sheila from Belleville! I just noticed your email now (I've been on the road a lot lately), and thought I'd drop by!

I make these pizzas all the time, too. They work great for kids' parties, because kids all want different things on their pizzas and they're very picky! This makes it fun for everyone!
